New Season

[Justin_3d 1,140]

True, although I'd prefer a midfield of

----Javi-------Romeu

----------Mata-------

For us to get Tiote and Martinez (unlikely) we will have to sell Essien and Meireles/Ramires

Sell Mikel for Javi, sell Essien for Tiote.

Meireles....can keep but if you get Kagawa then sell Meireles.

Ramires...don't want to sell him unless some big bid comes.

After that, for the money we got and spend it should not have been big.

The biggest part to spend has to be in wingers!

I love to make slightly unreaslitic teams but even for me this is too much lol, you want us to get 3 Midfielders and a couple of wingers? I would LOVE that but it won't happen...at least not all in the summer. The wingers are more important, so I think we should go for 2 wingers and a player like Kagawa

Ah one can only dream!

5 players in would not be that bad though. If we can get 3 or 4 we are golden.

I would still get Tiote, Javi and a winger as priority number one. If that's all the money we can spend on these 3 players then so be it.

We can get the Kagawa, Azpi and more wingers/strikers in the future.

As we got Kakuta coming back, KDB and hopefully Sturridge can be better next season.

Plus a RB to haha but 5 players would be a great thing, it would rebuild the team almost completely.

So what would people prefer?

2 Midfielders and a winger

Or

2 Wingers and a Midfielder

I'd prefer the latter

We do got Sturridge, and as mention Kakuta and KDB coming this summer.

So if they look ok we can easily wing it with one great winger ala Hazard type.

Selling Meireles for Kagawa should be no brainier. Meireles would like to go cause AVB is gone and Kagawa would want to come. That should be an easy transaction....unless our board will make it hard, which they probably will!

The hardest aspect will be getting mid like Tiote, Javi and then wingers like Hazard and such....

Drogba will probably leave, so sturridge should play CF, so than we only have KDB. Thus 2 TOP wingers are needed

Yeah so i guess it boils down to personal choice.

I think for the players we can sell and the money we got getting 3 new players in this summer would be sort of a disappointment, which is why I am shooting for 4 to 5 players in this summer.

I hope so too, last summer we got Lukaku, Romeu, Meireles and Mata. This season we will probably miss out on the top 4 and desperately need to rebuild so I don't think 4-5 players is out of the question. Expect alot of Money to be thrown about by Roman.

I don't think we will spend that big as before, which is why being smart is the key. Buying and selling players.

Like we can still get money from Essien and Mikel. Those 2 sells should at least raise money for a Tiote.

Meireles sell would raise cash for Kagawa.

The exodus of Kalou, Bosingwa and Drogba will free up wages. And if we somehow managed to sell Malouda we raise some cash.

So we can easily end up spending between 70mill in out of pocket expense which will not be that bad.

It won't be a ridicules 240m like the paper put it!

70 Million

Out:

Malouda- 6 Million

Kalou- 5 Million

Drogba- Free

Bosingwa- 4 million

Ferreira- 1 million (maybe)

Meireles- 10 million

Essien- 6-7 Million

Mikel: 6-7 Million

About 38-39 million

In:

Lavezzi- 25 Million

Hazard: 30 Million

Kagawa- 12-13 Million (his contract is expiring)

RB-Azpilicueta- 15 million

Tiote/Martinez-15 million

Total: 97-98 Million- Players Sold

Net Spend= 59-60 Million

10 Million left from 70 Million That's what I would do

What's unrealistic about it?, it's not how many players we get it's how much we spend. We could buy about 9 players and only spend 20 million, it's not unrealistic. And yeah it's unrealistic for the board to go do it because they wont, cause we know they will let us down again. But it's not unrealistic to happen, because it can happen. What's unrealistic is when you get about 3 world class players what cost 30-40 million, when you see players like Sneijder, Hazard and Cavani all in one team.

I don't think buying 3+ cheap players will get us anywhere...

[Justin_3d 1,140]

That would sound like a reasonable transfer budget.

I think Mikel can go for 10 mill. I remember Anzhi wanted him, and he should fetch that price.

Essien not sure what his price would be.

Malouda price sounds reasonable.

Kalou I think he is leaving for free....likewise Bosingwa.

So being rationale a income of 30 mill will not be that bad.

If the board can double what we got to spend then we should be in good shape to get some quality players.

I think Kalou and Bosingwa's contracts expire end of next season, not this one.

Cheap?, Ben Arfa was cheap does that mean he would of got us nowhere?.

Actually I checked online and saw Drogba, Kalou and Bosingwa in the Bosman list.
